Package a Presentation for CD

Take your PPT presentation on the road ... to a conference, meeting, etc. Even if a presentation is saved to a laptop, consider preparing a CD in case there is a problem connecting the laptop to the in-house cable. Most conference sites provide a computer on which to run your program.

When you prepare a PPT presentation in 2010 format there might be a problem running the show on equipment that is running an older version of PPT.

To overcome this problem use the Package a Presentation for CD feature in PowerPoint. This feature will automatically download the PowerPoint 2007 Viewer and all associated files (audio clips: videos, music, excel files, etc.).  The viewer 2007 will run on Windows 7, Vista or Windows XP with Service Pack 2 or later.

Open the presentation you want to package.
